American Radical Fundamentalism

Some people actually want the US government to perpetrate more war, destruction, and death around the globe. They’re convinced that if the correct people can be killed, injured, and maimed, peace will be the result. Could anything be more ludicrous?

If the goal of these advocates of perpetual conflict is to reduce the number of violent, radical fundamentalists, they should really start by ceasing to BE violent, radical fundamentalists themselves. I’m certainly not defending ISIS or Al-Qaeda, just pointing out that the warmongers in the US and elsewhere are really no better.
